Broadway Heights’ Race to Zero

ROBERT ROBINSON and his wife Barbara were among the first to go solar in their tightly knit neighborhood of Broadway Heights in San Diego. Now thanks in no small part to their own efforts, they are one of 55 families there to benefit from GRID’s program, and neighbors regularly make a contest of who has the smallest energy bill. A U.S. Marine Corps veteran who has been working to improve his neighborhood for 17 years, Robert joined GRID’s local advisory council in 2013 to become an ambassador for solar and help other communities access clean, affordable energy.
